He is just entering his 18yo season, and he still looks like a kid physically, and yet he looked poised and comfortable, playing against professionals and men for the first time, last night. That is a huge step in progression for him.
He is going to tear the Q apart, and he may have to get bumped up to a higher level, sooner rather than later.

He reminds me a little of Brodie. I didn't know much about him coming out of the draft, but all the pundits seemed to agree he was a steal at his position. It sure is nice having him and Poirier coming down the pipe.
